Periodica de Scientiis Liturgicis

The León antiphonary, “the jewel of Latin antiphonaries” as Louis Brou aptly described it, has been well studied from different angles. Its interest, from liturgical and musicological points of view, is obvious. The purpose of the current article is to use later additions – the folios at the beginning of the codex and the texts which were written in spaces originally left blank – to deepen our understanding of the Hispanic liturgy.
